Jeffrey L. Wragg

I met Jeff in 2008 as I was touring the CofC physics department. he wore a Hawaiian shirt and talked about his skydiving adventures. I was so inspired by his aura that I chose to pursue physics rather than engineering, in the hopes of becoming someone like Jeff one day. he taught me to approach life experimentally. he taught me how to write a resume. he taught me that you can be brilliant mind and a silly jokester who lights up a room with a corny joke.

Dr. Wragg was my physics professor at CofC (class of 2004). He was inspiring and enthusiastic and I will be forever grateful for his patience.
